Space Empires IV Cheats (PC)

Space Empires IV is a turn-based strategy computer game developed by Malfador Machinations and published by Strategy First as part of the Space Empires series in which players control an alien race in an attempt at galactic conquest. The gameplay is similar to Civilization style games in the sense that one controls the overall organization of the alien race on a scale far above that of controlling individual persons. Combat is not necessary in the game and players are free to engage in political negotiations with their rivals. The mechanics of the game allow players to either improve their planets' resource production through the construction of facilities or build more ships with which to defend their empires.

There are multiple ways that players can conquer other empires. The most direct way is destroying the colonies of their enemies. Despite the simplistic and violent nature of the game, it is completely non-graphic. While players may deploy plagues to your opponent's worlds in an effort to eliminate them, or convert suns into black holes to crush entire star systems, there is no visualized killing in the game.

During later game stages master computers can be used for piloting starships, to improve space efficiency and to resist psychic attacks. In Space Empires IV the galaxy is represented by a number of discrete areas called "systems" which represent complete solar systems. These are usually connected to each other by "warp points" through which a ship or fleet can travel to another system. Check out the cheats below to give your empire an extra boost:

Cheat: Resources
Go to the empire report screen and hold ctrl then type "money".

Cheat: Fast build
To decrease building time, go to the Construction Queue area, hold down [ctrl], and type "fast". For very long build times, you may need to do it multiple times.
